1.8. Kontron is only liable in case of intention and gross negligence. Under no circumstances will Kontron be liable for any indirect, punitive, special, incidental or consequential damages or any loss of profit, loss of production however they may arise and regardless on which legal basis they are based on.

1.9. Some countries do not allow exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability as outlined under the clause above, therefore, the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. In such countries, Kontron’s liability and that of our third party content providers and their respective agents shall be limited to the greatest extent permitted by the relevant law.

1.10. If the limitations of liability mentioned above are invalid, the following clause shall be applied:

Kontron shall be liable without limit for intentional and grossly negligent acts only (including those of its legal representatives and agents) and for damage to life, bodily harm and damage to health. Kontron shall also be liable without limit for guarantees or assurances given if a defect that is covered by such a guarantee or assurance triggers liability. Further, there shall be no limit to liability resulting from hazardous circumstances (in particular in accordance with the German product liability act/Produkthaftungsgesetz). This shall not affect possible liability in accordance with the entrepreneur's recourse principles contained in §§ 478 et seq. German Civil Code/BGB. Kontron's remaining liability in respect of culpable breaches of material contractual duties (cardinal duties) shall be limited to forseeable loss as is typical for this kind of agreement. All other liability shall be excluded regardless of its legal basis (in particular claims resulting from a breach of primary or secondary contractual obligations, illicit acts and liability for other tortious acts). The same (exclusions, limitations and exceptions) shall apply in respect of claims on the grounds of fault at the time of concluding the agreement. This clause 1.10. shall apply analogously in relation to the reimbursement of expenses (to the exception of any reimbursement as provided in §§ 439 ii and 635 ii German Civil Code/BGB). Exclusions and limitations of liability shall also apply in respect of Kontron's legal representatives and agents. this agreement does not purport to reverse the burden of proof. Cardinal duties means material contractual duties, i.e. those duties which give the agreement its character and on which the customer may rely.

2. Additional limitation of liability for third party drivers and software:

2.1. Any questions complaints or claims related to third party drivers and software should only be directed to the appropriate author or company responsible for developing the software. Responsibility or any liability of Kontron for third party of third party material is excluded.
